Just as a largely atrocious Merseyside derby seemed to be heading for the goalless draw it deserved, the Reds went and nicked it in the 95th minute when Sadio Mane followed up a Daniel Sturridge effort which hit the post.

The goal stunned Goodison Park, with the Liverpool supporters in one corner of the ground erupting in delight.

And the winner meant that their neighbours' ground now feels just as much as home to them as Anfield does.

Because incredibly, despite the long, long history of this fixture, Liverpool have now won JUST AS MANY derbies at Goodison Park as Everton have done.

In this the 227th derby in all competitions, the Reds have now won 40 at Goodison - the same amount as the Blues.

Everton's defeat means they still haven't won a derby at home or away since 2010, and they've only won one of the last 20 league encounters.

And Liverpool's dominance of the fixture also extends to matches at Anfield, where Everton haven't won this century.
